MXene@MnIn2S4‐Gated Organic Photoelectrochemical Transistors with Nanozyme‐Mediated Multiple Quenching Effects for Ultrasensitive Detection of Okadaic Acid

Abstract Organic optoelectronics have attracted widespread interdisciplinary research interest but lags far behind in the application in marine environmental detection. The organic photoelectrochemical transistor (OPECT) shows promise as a powerful tool for comprehensive monitoring and early warning of marine conditions, which can be further enhanced by the valuable signal amplification strategy of nanozyme‐mediated catalytic precipitation. Herein, OPECT technology is integrated with nanozyme‐mediated catalytic precipitation for the first time, establishing an ultrasensitive detection platform for okadaic acid (OA). Specifically, MXene@MnIn 2 S 4 (MXMnIS) hybrid composed of Schottky‐junction is synthesized via a hydrothermal method, which can efficiently modulate the device with high current gain. Linking with a sandwich immunoassay, the Ru‐C 3 N 4 nanozyme with peroxidase‐mimicking activity can catalyze the oxidation of 4‐chloro‐1‐naphthol (4‐CN) to form an insoluble precipitate on the electrode surface, resulting in a decrease in the photocurrent and altering the transistor response. Importantly, the proposed OPECT biosensor presented an excellent sensitivity and a low detection limit (32.5 pM), fully satisfying the fundamental requirements for the quantitative detection of intracellular and extracellular OA in the practical culture media of Prorocentrum lima at different growth stages. This OPECT platform based on the nanozyme‐mediated quenching effect is significant for effectively monitoring the safety of the marine ecological environment and food safety.
